The 2026-2027 season of Serie A kicks off today, Saturday, amid great anticipation for a new edition of Calcio, following a season that saw Inter Milan crowned champions, as they embark on their journey to defend their throne once again.

The opening round features several strong matchups, most notably the clash between Inter and Monza, as the defending champions kick off their campaign at home. Meanwhile, Napoli visits Genoa in a match where the champions from two seasons ago aim for a strong start.

All eyes are also on Milan, who begins their season with a match against Torino, amid the significant changes the team has undergone during the summer. Meanwhile, Juventus enters the season with new ambitions under the leadership of Luciano Spalletti, following a season that did not meet expectations.

The title race is wide open this season, with Napoli, Roma, Milan, and Juventus joining the competition, alongside Inter, who aim to become the first team to retain the Serie A title in recent years after finishing last season at the top with 87 points.

The new edition carries many awaited stories, with changes in coaching staff and strong reinforcements for clubs, alongside Como's participation in the Champions League for the first time, marking the start of a new journey of excitement in one of the most tactical leagues in Europe.
